How to pronounce "slingshot"

Imagine if you were to have an intelligent sheet that can self-fold

into any form it wants, anytime.

And that's what I've been working on.

And I call this robotic origami,

"robogami."

Ten years later, with my group of  ninja origami robotic researchers --

we have a new generation of robogamis.

This one actually navigates through different terrains autonomously.

So when it's a dry and flat land, it crawls.

And if it meets sudden rough terrain, it starts rolling.

It's the same robot -- but depending on which terrain it meets,

it activates a different sequence of actuators that's on board.

And once it meets an obstacle, it jumps over it.

It does this by storing energy in each of its legs and releasing it

and catapulting like a slingshot.

For robogamis, there's no one fixed shape nor task.

They can transform into anything, anywhere, anytime.
